OK I know I have been MIA from here for over a month. Just Matteo keeps me so busy I just don't have much time for anything. Quick post... he is now 9 and a half months. We were at his doctors last week and he is 31inches long and they FOR SURE weighed him wrong, they said he was 18 lbs 3 oz... which NO WAY that is true... even when I got home from the doctors Dom and I weighed him on our scale and we estimate 21lbs... ugh! I wish my doctor had re-weighed him. Oh well. Anyways he's very active, crawling fast EVERYWHERE and pulling himself up to a standing position everywhere. He has 4 teeth and the 5th is on its way. He is eating really well. Usually 7 to 8 ounces each meal and breast milk morning, afternoon and bedtime. My doctor wants me to take that down to 2 by 12months. He's also doing really well with finger foods. He really likes to try everything. Here are a few pictures from over the Thanksgiving weekend:
